Guam Land Info
Created by the Government of Guam, this Android app (soon to be available as an iOS app), Guam Land Info supplies the latest data on landmarks, street maps, in addition to others like lot descriptions, property sizes and land use zones that probably won’t apply to tourists. It’s still a handy app and interesting in terms of the information, and given that mobile is the most important trend in technology today, as iterated by Gaming Realms, managers of numerous cross-platform entertainment portals, an app is the best way to publicly share government information.
Shop Guam Festival
Although this app was initially created to share information on events, shopping, and dining promotions during the Christmas season, Shop Guam Festival is also a useful tool to have on your smartphone throughout the year as it also supplies helpful information on tours and cultural activities you can participate in. The app can also help you plan your itinerary ahead of time.
